Sorry I've been awol for a couple of crazy weeks, but I'm back now. And it being Friday, I'm fortunate to be able to ease into it with some linky love.

Blog tour kicks back up on Monday, so today I'm taking it a little easy. :-)
THE REASON IS YOU has been out in the world for one week now, and I couldn't be happier. It's everything I hoped it would be like, seeing it out there, hearing from readers. Of course I'm told this is Week One Euphoria (see Roni Loren's post in January about the stages of a book release...it's hysterical...lol). And that's okay. I'm aware that there won't always be people loving my book--right now that's all I'm hearing from--but it will come. The bad reviews and negativity. I know. And I'm prepared with my ... Read More

Roni wrote her first romance novel at age fifteen when she discovered writing ... Read More

Don’t Let Go Review from The Romance Room

Sharla Lovelace has produced one of the most emotionally charged and beautifully written second-chance love stories I have read in a very long time. The characters, the storyline, the twists, the surprises, the emotions, the tears.. everything… it’s just the most perfect book. - The Romance Room

The Reason is You review by Kathryn Magendie

“A spot-on debut novel, Sharla Lovelace’s prose is smart, witty, funny, with a hot sexy edge that makes The Reason Is You an oh-so-tantalizing romantic journey…the line between our world and the mystical one is deliciously blurred.” ~ Kathryn Magendie, author of Tender Graces, Secret Graces, Family Graces, Sweetie

The Reason is You review by Therese Walsh

“The Reason Is You is a romantic story about love, ghosts, and second chances. But under all of that, it’s a story about redemption. This novel is the definition of a page-turner.” ~ Therese Walsh, author of The Last Will of Moira Leahy

Before and Ever Since review by Romantic Times Book Reviews

"Lovelace does a great job of bridging the past with the present. The characters are smart, funny and well rounded. It is refreshing to see a female character, with obvious vulnerabilities, exhibit such strength in situations that would make other women cringe." ~Romantic Times Book Reviews

Before and Ever Since review by Joyfully Reviewed

"Before And Ever Since is a beautifully crafted, thought provoking story that engaged me from the first few words. The chemistry between Emily and Ben was sizzling hot, and I was quite enamored of these two attempting to work things out…that I could NOT put this story down until I finished it." ~ Joyfully Reviewed, November 2012 Recommended Read

Before and Ever Since review by Cocktails & Books

"Sharla Lovelace is a gifted storyteller. She creates characters that are very down-to-earth, flawed and understand that there isn’t a fairy tale happily ever after waiting for them at the end. It’s raw, it’s gritty and it’s not tied up with a pretty bow, which makes it feel so very real. I look forward to reading more from Sharla Lovelace in the future." ~Cocktails & Books
